According to the divination, the 'writer' will appear on the Immortal Platform within three days.
Ning Yi was afraid of missing the opportunity, so he stopped practicing in seclusion for a long time.
Take this opportunity to study the secret technique of "Detailed Explanation of Smelting and Purifying the Qi of the Five Elements".
This secret technique records various methods of refining the Qi of the Five Elements.
Ning Yi focuses on studying and understanding the Qi of Wood. If he can master it, he can try to extract the Qi of the wood spirit from the withered yellow slices and nourish it in the liver, which will speed up his practice and prepare for the sacrifice of the 'five-color divine light'.
"Proficiency 9"
"Proficiency 12"
…………
Just entering the state, Ning Yi found that his comprehension speed was obviously faster than usual.
The secret technique "Detailed Explanation of the Essence of Smelting and Purifying the Qi of the Five Elements" involves the mystery of the five elements, and the "Great Five Elements Perfect and Perfect Foundation Building Technique" practiced by Ning Yi also involves the mystery of the five elements.
The two corroborate each other, and the speed of understanding is much faster.
In just half a day, Ning Yi had already completed the chapter on the Qi of Wood.
Turning it over and taking out the thin yellow slices, the natural wood texture revealed a Taoist charm. Ning Yi looked at it over and over for a long time, frowning slightly.
You can tell this thing is extraordinary at first glance.
It's just that Ning Yi can sense the Taoist rhyme coming out of it, but Ning Yi can't comprehend anything from this Taoist rhyme?
This kind of situation is rare for Ning Yi.
In the past, as long as someone felt something, he could understand something, and even the fairy root that saw the Secret Shadow Division was no exception.
On the other hand, this thin yellow piece is a bit strange.
Ning Yi had a vague feeling that it seemed to be just a shell, a shell whose essence had been absorbed. The rich wood spiritual energy contained inside was just the residue after the essence had been drained away.
If I sensed it correctly, what would it look like when the withered yellow flakes were intact?
True essence poured into the thin slice, and Ning Yi tried to extract it according to the secret technique recording method.
Then, the wood essence in the thin slices did not move at all.
"wrong?"
Ning Yi was a little surprised and tried again, but it was still the same.
After doing this for five or six times, it became clear that the problem with Ning Yibai was not the technique, but the problem with the dry and yellow slices.
The seemingly rich essence of wood is just like the rhyme of Taoism, just a reflection of flowers in the mirror.
If so, wouldn't it be a piece of waste?
Of course, there is another possibility.
This thing is so mysterious that it cannot be extracted by ordinary methods.
I can only put this matter aside for the time being and check the classics. If that doesn't work, I need to find someone to authenticate it.
It's just that this thing was obtained from Zhao Yuan. He would rather be afraid of causing trouble than show it to others easily. Now that he can use it, he can only take a little risk. Fortunately, he has the art of disguise, so if he is careful, he should be fine.
In the blink of an eye, one day passed.
Early the next morning, an imperial edict detonated the city of Chang'an.
Thirteen dignitaries headed by Marquis Xinyi had collaborated with the enemy and treason. The evidence was conclusive. One day later, they would be beheaded at the Zhanxian Terrace to pay homage to the souls of those who died in the bloody night of Chang'an.
Ning Yi looked at the charge sheet in his hand. Although he had expected it, Ning Yi was still a little surprised to deal with so many powerful people at once.
The royal family is serious this time.
The crime list details the crimes committed by thirteen powerful people who collaborated with the enemy and treason.
Each one picked out alone is enough to kill them several times. Dozens of them are put together, which can only make people's blood boil.
The whole city of Chang'an was boiling.
People took to the streets to vent their anger, and teahouses and restaurants were doing brisk business.
The night before the execution day, countless people had gathered in front of the Immortal Killing Platform, and the place was filled with water inside and outside.
When Ning Yizheng was worried about squeezing in like this, Zhan Zhao came to the door with several powerful disciples.
"Brother Ning."
Zhan Zhao showed a warm smile on his face and said: "These students are all my brothers. They heard that our class has a genius who is at the ninth level of Qi training, so they asked to introduce him to him."
"Genius? Brother Zhan, please stop making fun of me."
Ning Yi waved his hand and said, "I'm ashamed to say that, now the entire Jixia Academy is probably laughing at me in private."
"Haha...who said that?"
A tall and strong young man laughed a few times and whispered: "To be honest, I envy you to death."
"Count me in."
"Me too."
…………
After this incident, the relationship between everyone seemed to have become much closer.
"This is Ningling Houfu, Ji You."
Later, Zhan Zhao introduced the
"Brother Ji, I have admired you for a long time."
Ning Yi's eyes flickered, and the fiefdom of Ninglinghou Ji's family was Yunzhou, which was not far from Kunshan County.
Among the dozen or so companies that Ning Yi suspected, the Ji family was at the forefront.
This Ji You came from the direct line of the Ji family, and was in the early stages of foundation building. He was also considered a man of influence among the senior students of Jixia Academy.
The academic system of Jixia Academy is not fixed.
Generally speaking, as long as your cultivation reaches the foundation-building level, you can apply for graduation, enter the Tang Dynasty Hall, or be transferred to a county or county to become an official.
If you have not reached the foundation building level and have stayed for ten years, you can also apply for graduation.
Ji You obviously has no plans to complete his studies. The wealthy Ji family does not need to be an official to obtain training resources.
On the contrary, when staying at Jixia Academy, the cultivation resources here are not comparable to those within the clan. After all, there are countless books and techniques, as well as teaching and guidance at the Golden Core Realm. Once you graduate and leave, you will never be able to return.
You can't enjoy this kind of convenience.
There are many people in Jixia Academy who have such plans.
However, most of them are children of powerful people.
On the other hand, common people's children will basically apply for graduation and choose to enter the officialdom system once they have established their foundation or have completed ten years.
After all, once you become an official, it is easier to obtain spiritual resources than it is to study in Jixia Academy.
"Earl's Mansion in Yunzhong, Yao Jingdu."
"The Marquis of Wushan, Lu Fengxian."
…………
After seeing Ning Yi one by one, everyone headed towards the Immortal Killing Platform.
While chatting on the road, Zhan Zhao and his entourage intentionally or unintentionally brought the topic to Qianjijiang.
Ning Yi didn't reply directly, nor did he refuse, just one word, "Delay!"
These people approached him for the sake of Qianji Niang. Ning Yi used Qian Ji Niang to lure these young dignitaries and take the opportunity to break into their circle for the convenience of future actions.
After a while, everyone came to the Immortal Killing Platform.
This place is located at the west gate of the imperial city, around the large square, and is completely bare with no grass growing.
A group of several generations cleared the way, and Ning Yi didn't worry about not being able to squeeze in.
Occupying the best position, Ning Yi looked down at the center of the square.
On a high platform built of nine layers of blue-black boulders, there were eighteen guillotines placed. Before the formation could fall, an icy-cold evil aura had penetrated the formation and invaded all directions.
The people who crowded to the front were all wearing thick cotton clothes, and some of them were drinking strong drinks from time to time.
Even so, I still couldn't help but shiver.
Perhaps only the hatred in my heart is like a burning fire that can endure such a biting evil spirit.
Eighteen guillotines are like eighteen demonic shadows.
The blood-colored evil spirit lingered all around, so much so that its true form could not be seen.
Ning Yi observed for a few times, then turned his eyes from the Immortal Killing Platform to the surrounding crowds, scanning them one by one to look for suspicious figures.
Before the prisoner arrived, Ning Yi was not sure whether the 'writer' was here, so he did not dare to risk casting a spell for the time being. After all, the breath was too weak, and he only had one chance.
Suddenly, Ning Yi's eyes fell on a person to the west.
